I tried the steps to reproduce you provided in comment 0 but was unable to reproduce the crash. Can you try on a standard Firefox Nightly build [1] and see if you can reproduce it there? If not then it's likely a problem with the distro packaging and you'll have to file a bug against them.

Ok, I have tried this, and the bug does NOT SHOW with
firefox-52.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.

I'll file a bug report with Arch Linux packaging.

I've changed status to resolved/invalid.

Thank you for looking into this, and please excuse the inconvenience.
